Variety description

10 August 2026

The plant possesses excellent growth vigor and high productivity. The fruits have a round shape and a mass in the range of 3–6 kg. The rind color corresponds to the Crimson Sweet type: dark green stripes are located on a medium-dark green background.

The flesh is deep red, firm, crisp, with a high sugar content and medium-sized seeds. The hybrid shows high or intermediate resistance to Fusarium wilt and anthracnose, and is resistant to fruit cracking.

The variety is suitable for cultivation in greenhouses and open fields; it is in demand for retail trade and export shipments due to a size convenient for refrigerator storage.
